European Tribune - Comments - That, which cannot go on forever, won't

That, which cannot go on forever, won't | 45 comments (45 topical, 0 editorial, 0 hidden)

I've been paranoid about the US economy/stock market now for 6-8 years. Avoided the tech puke out but not making much while waiting. Still can't pull the trigger to invest in this world market....

The greater fool theory is not running out of fools so far. Either that or our shared pessimism is totally misplaced.

Re: How long must we wait? (none / 0)

Well, timing is of course the killer.

A good question is what are the safe investments to make now that may prosper when the bubble bursts.

guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper
